Immigration Bonds are slightly different than local (or county) bail bonds. Immigration bonds require a 15% premium, and some form of collateral is generally required. However, they do serve the same purpose as to ensure the defendants appearance in court or by the INS (Immigration and Naturalization Service).

What to do if someone has an Immigration HoldThe immigration bail bonds process, unfortunately, not a quick one. We must let the local jail know as soon as possible that we are interested in posting bond on the local level. We do this because once bond is posted on the county level, ICE (Bureau of Immigration and Customs Enforcement) has a certain amount of time to extradite them to the immigration detention facility before they have to release defendant.

There are a few ways someone can have an immigration bond. Usually if someone is arrested for a crime, there will be a bond set locally that will have to be posted. One the local (or county) bond has been posted and there is a hold from ICE (Bureau of Immigration and Customs Enforcement ), the defendant will have to remain in custody until ICE comes to extradite the arrestee to a Immigration detention facility. Once at the Immigration Detention Facility, it could take a up to a three days for the defendant to be issued an immigration bond, if any at all. During this process, we can begin the Immigration bond process so that when the bail bond is set, we will be ready to post the immigration bond.
